Guddi Barot



Age: 12
Address: Old Vadaj Slum.

Guddi is full of giggles and is always trying to get a smile out of someone. She began seeming to be quite shy, but is now full of confidence and constantly playing around. She comes from a close-knit family with 3 other siblings. Her father works as a ‘Choutuk’ (a handyman, when there is work available) and this income is not generous or consistent, so all 4 children are now part of the Earn N’ Learn family. Guddi is in the 7th grade at a local Government School and is a very good student. She says that they have strict parents so there is not much playing, but plenty of time for study. She and her sister like to dance together, and she says that instead of playing they fight, like most loving sisters do... Guddi’s favorite time of the day is her time at Earn N’ Learn! She likes it because they get to do everything there- work, play, study, prayer, tuition, and she gets to hang out with friends! Sounds perfect to us :)
